Imagine never having to feel that again, no matter where your four-legged escape artist decides to wander.

Over the years, my husband Kev and I have gone through quite the wine storage journey—from makeshift racks to dedicated coolers—and we’ve learned that proper temperature control makes all the difference. When the opportunity came to review the BODEGA JC-70 Wine Cooler, I was more than happy to put it to the test. Spoiler alert: It performed flawlessly.

Foldable smartphones are real-world transformers—you get the portability of a regular slab phone for everyday tasks, but when you need more screen real estate, the tablet-sized inner display is right there. In theory, foldables are the best of both worlds. In practice, many struggle with bulk, awkwardly sized front displays, and durability concerns. I have considered the OnePlus Open the best foldable for the US market since 2023. With OnePlus skipping a new foldable release again this year, it only makes sense to turn to its sibling company, OPPO, and its latest foldable, the OPPO Find N5.

Apple’s Vision Pro has been out for a minute now, and while it’s undoubtedly an impressive piece of hardware, I think we can agree that it also firmly cements its wearers in the “I have more money than sense” club.

Enter the dbrand Aperture—a faceplate so unapologetically odd-looking that it somehow makes perfect sense.
